ABSTRACT:
A combination of a planar substrate and a package for housing the planar substrate, such as a self-adhesive bandage, is provided. In the invention, the package is made up of two opposed package portions. One wall of each package portion is elongated so that it can be folded inwardly on itself to provide protection for the opposed adhesive-coated ends of the substrate. By this design, the package can be simply opened by pulling the two package portions apart. The opening of the package also automatically exposes the adhesive-covered ends of the substrate. The user can therefore apply the substrate without ever having to take his or her hands off of the opposed ends of the package. The invention thereby provides a unique package for housing self-adhesive bandages which greatly simplifies the package opening process and which substantially eliminates the danger of contacting the sterile pad portion of the bandage or getting entangled with the adhesive portions of the bandage.
